A first day trip where I enjoy one surprise after another, and which ends in an apotheotic view.
Upon awakening I feel the new world: Heaven. A deep rumble not from this world, bird-like chatter and the rising sun right behind my stay tantalise all my senses and bring me in a state of speechless awe of all this beauty.
Heavenly interweaved sounds enter my mind when a divine voice invites me to view some boundless and beautiful horizons by climbing this vast mountain.
I start climbing. Slowly, fantastic landscapes swirl around me carried by waving angel whispers. The higher I come, the more the tempo of my heartbeat and my breathing tell my state of emotion.
When I arrive at the top, I can’t believe my eyes… A holy choir shows me the most alluring images and scapes.
By looking towards the horizon I perceive the godly splendour: embedded in the clouds there is a white piano. Overjoyed I play an ode to the Heavenly beauty. The angelic choir follows in singing and dashing tympani.
Meanwhile I’m totally devoured by an apotheosis of ethereal grandeur. How I got to my overnight stay riddles me still..
